SUMMARY:Digital by Default Group- Digitalisation of Reinforcing Steel (Rebar)
DESCRIPTION:Join the CE Digital By Default group on Thursday 8th May for a session on Digitalisation of Reinforcing Steel (Rebar). \nThe group will hear from Ladin Camci BSc MSc\, Chief Technology & Sustainability Officer (CTSO) & Executive Board Member of CARES\, and Andrew Woolnough CEO of CARES’ digital partner Digital Construction Solutions. We will also hear from Simon Gibbs\, Regional Manager at Giatec and Rachel Heaton\, Construction Engagement Manager at GS1 UK. \nSession Overview \nThe existing rebar steel supply chain workflows were still inherently labour intensive\, paper-based and not capable of connecting the full product supply chain\, which made the process susceptible to impairment or malicious alteration potentially leaving significant gaps in the assurance trails. Further to this\, with the existing paper-based solutions\, documents are stored in a way that makes locating them more complex increasing search time for information stored across paper\, inboxes and network folders. In addition to this\, visually mapping and reviewing different stages of the supply chain are rendered extremely challenging due to poor recording and traceability. To enhance the existing paper-based workflows through the advancement of a digitalised process that required the development of bespoke data collection methodologies and integrating with advanced levels of verification and quality assurance capabilities.  \nThe CARES Cloud (https://cares.cloud/) has been developed to address and solve these urgent issues\, bringing simplicity to a complex supply chain while restoring trust where it’s missing. The solution is a digital traceability and assurance platform consisting of the Upstream Cloud\, Downstream Cloud and complementary Apps. The solution enables: \n\n\n\nreal-time analysis of the production origin of the rebar;\nan accurate carbon footprint value for each tonne of rebar delivered;\nreliable\, easily-accessible evidence of assurance for inclusion in project BIM models;\nsophisticated API architecture for seamless connectivity to other systems;\nfull digitalisation of the rebar supply chain by connecting with products like Rebar Cloud (https://rebar.cloud/).\n\n\n\nDuring this session\, we will also hear from Giatec. Giatec’s mission is to bring disruptive\, knowledge-based and sustainable technologies to the concrete industry. Giatec identify current challenges in concrete testing and design innovative solutions to address them. Their products allow concrete producers\, contractors and business owners to increase profitability of their projects by saving time\, labour and costs. Their SmartRock sensors enable contractors to see\, in real-time\, the strength and temperature of their concrete ensuring that curing conditions remain within the ideal range for high-quality construction. \n  \nThis event provides Constructing Excellence National members with CPD in partnership with BRE Academy.
